| Post subject: | Setting time in diferent time zone without watch stopping |
I have recently bought Chronograph Evolution. Slovakia. When have read manual in slovak, it said: when you pull crown out to the position 2, you can move hour hand until you reach the time ( or time zone) or date you want. This would be of course very usefull ( I had this on my previous Tissot) when you often change time zone and not want to set up time in watch. English manual says, when you pull out the crown to the position 2 , you can set up calendar (only). Now , I am little confused, whether to clam that or not, when I use position 2, and turning crown, it changes date, hour hand is fixed. I only can change time in position 3, but that moment, time is stopped and must be set precisely sometimes later. Any experience? or advise? Miro |

You cannot change time on the Chronomate Evolution without stopping time (position 3). |

The only watch I have that can do this is the Chrono Avenger M1(quartz). |

thank you guys, however not satisfied, will try to speak to sales agent , maybe there is way to replace it. Pity, that no such information about all functionality is found on official breitling website. |

I have visited retailer today and he offered me to take this Evo back if I decide for B01 (with surcharge ofcourse). Has anyone experience how this feature works on B01 (mean setting in position2)? Only date change? Or hour hand is moving alone? thanks |

Has anzone experience how is this feature works on B01 (mean setting in position2)? Only date change? Or hour hand is moving alone? thanks It's the same as the Evo. The B01 quick set date can be used at any time of day but there isn't a feature to change the hour only. It sounds like you really need a watch with a second timezone that has an hour only hand to indicate the time in a second timezone - Navitimer World, Colt GMT, Bentley GMT. |

Thanks all of you, today sales agent agreed with exchange (and balance money back) to Chrono Colt, black dial, white dials, beautifull watch. Two time zone quick setup, SuperQuartz, 200m water resistant. As well as accuracy acc. quartz (less than 0.5sec/day) exact model I need. When become fan for collection, B01 will be the first one. I touched it today, one of the nicest I ever seen;-) miro |
